I did it! I visited 10 indie bookstores in Chicago and now I'll get 10% at all 24 bookstores that participated in the challenge for a whole year. All the books!! 🙆🏻 I'm so tired. So is my wallet. 😆 I'll post more tomorrow. #independentbookstoreday #MyChicagoBookstore #chibd17

PurpleyPumpkin Well done you! I wish I had that many indie bookstores to visit near me. I'll have to visit Chicago again and do a book crawl. 😉 8y

The second reading nook print I picked up during #Independentbookstoreday It is called Lost and Found and was inspired by Jenny's new book. I really love this one, which came from stop 2, The Book Cellar. #CHIBD17 #getindie #indiebookstore #AprilBookShowers @RealLifeReading

One of the prints I picked up for my reading nook, made to celebrate #independentbookstoreday '17 by 3 Fish Studios (they did a gorgeous Literary Map of the Seven Seas one year, too) I picked this up at my first stop, my favorite indie @RoscoeBooks The book for my home state, Illinois, is The House on Mango Street. #CHIBD17 I see a reading challenge here...🤔#indiebookstore #AprilBookShowers (appropriate tag for today's weather!) @RealLifeReading

Tamra What a great reading challenge idea, love it! 8y
angrylilasian I really wanted to get this! It was so hard to decide between the prints and books! 😅 #bookishproblems 8y
Lola @angrylilasian I really thought I'd just spend the initial $25 and then stop at the other stores for tags only. I also told myself I'd just buy the indie day swag and no books-because I don't need any more books #lieswetellourselves 😂😂 8y

I spent #readathon day traveling the city for #Independentbookstoreday.I received a carabiner (fancy name for tag holder) and my first bookstore tag. Minimum purchase $25. Let's just say I exceeded that by..a bit 😛At each later stop,you pick up another tag for your carabiner(I left mine whole cuz I think they make nice bookmarks), no purchase necessary. Maybe not necessary but..who can resist?I picked up this book at store 3, Open Books. #CHIBD17

angrylilasian I wish I had kept them whole too. I didn't think of that until bookstore #3. 8y
